No, No.... keep it coming.  I need all the advice I can get.  This advice resonates heavily with the approach I am thinking of taking.  Discussing the attributes of quant/fiat money first, then introducing bitcoin, and closing with practical, real-life success stories of bitcoin.  Staying away from the technical side as much as possible.


THIS.

i also disagree that its hard to explain decentralization.  i usually start by giving the example of how Netscape's doors got kicked in and servers seized.  then i explain how geeks developed Bittorrent and how hundreds of thousands of laptops all over the world have replaced the servers b/c average ppl are essentially expressing their vote as to how they wish to behave.  

it doesn't matter if you're one of the 0.02% elite; you can't forcibly change the minds of the other 99.98% when they're free to communicate over the Internet and you don't have the manpower to do so.
